SAN FRANCISCO, June 13 (Xinhua) -- Boeing announced Monday a new partnership with the Commonwealth of Virginia and Virginia Tech to establish the Boeing Center for Veteran Transition & Military Families.

The center, to be located at Virginia Tech's Innovation Campus in Alexandria, Virginia, will provide career resources and advance employment opportunities for veterans, as well as support for military families during the transition to civilian life.

"This initiative will unlock new career opportunities for veterans and their families and help develop leading technical talent while affirming our continued investment in Northern Virginia," said Boeing President and CEO Dave Calhoun.

"Boeing's recent announcement to move its headquarters to Virginia and reaffirm its commitment to building the next generation of tech talent is a timely development for the Commonwealth, and is made more exciting by their extensive partnership with Virginia Tech," said Governor of Virginia Glenn Youngkin.
